The Builder And Owner Agreement is a fundamental legal document used in Saudi Arabia to establish and regulate the contractual relationship between property owners and construction contractors. This agreement is essential for any construction project in Saudi Arabia, whether residential, commercial, or industrial. It must comply with Saudi civil law, building regulations, and Sharia law principles while protecting both parties' interests. The document typically includes detailed specifications for construction work, payment terms, timelines, quality standards, and dispute resolution mechanisms. It's particularly important in the Saudi context due to specific local building codes, environmental regulations, and business practices. This agreement serves as the primary reference point for managing construction projects and resolving any disputes that may arise during the construction process.
